What, you might ask, is lawn aeration? It's something that will help your yard look its best and keep your grass healthy.

"I can get in and out quickly," says Lackey. "I can also do core sampling and have your soil tested. I'll often do that for free, to find out what you need to make your yard healthier. If they're interested in having the best lawns they can have, that's how I can help. I like to see healthy lawns."

Lackey says it averages about $50 to have a lawn aerated, with larger areas negotiable. There is a minimum fee of $20 per lawn.
